    A belated thanks for your explanation, operagost. I did a

    I don't understand why this is such a problem, just as I never had trouble in 2000. I ran Win95 throughout and it never cost me 5 minutes. If nothing else, I can adjust my time zone 1 hour, but I know large businesses and those with servers won't be satisfied with that. This is mainly an issue for them; why some home users are getting all bent out of shape is beyond me.

    Enable ntpd. I don't know if ms windows has a similar capability, but I'm bet there are at least utilities.
